Description: Hui O Ka Koa Security ServicePrivate Contract Security Servicesfor 5 Military InstallationsHawaiiShoulder & Cap Patch SetThe U.S. Navy has outsourced the security of its Hawaii bases to a private company for the first time.The contract marks a major shift in policy by the Navy as it moves to privatize some duties that are performed by sailors. Starting Feb. 1, sailors at Pearl Harbor, the naval magazine at West Loch and a communications center in Wahiawa were replaced at guard posts by officers from the private security firm.Hui O Ka Koa Security of Honolulu, a Native Hawaiian-owned firm that is a joint venture of a local engineering firm and a Mainland conglomerate, was awarded the five-year deal worth $83 million.The contract pays the company to guard five Navy bases: three in Hawaii, one in Maine and another in Connecticut, said Alvin H. Pauole, general manager of Hui O Ka Koa, which means “team of warriors.”The two partners in the venture are Hana Engineering, an 8-year-old Native Hawaiian-owned firm in Honolulu, and Day & Zimmermann, a Philadelphia-based company whose subsidiaries include a large security services division that specializes in guarding nuclear, defense and power facilities.Hana is the managing partner in the Hawaii portion of the contract, which was awarded without competitive bidding.“It’s a single/sole-source contract,” Pauole said. “We marketed our team to the Navy, they were convinced we can do the job and they gave us the contract.” Worldwide Shippingon an Actual Cost Basis
